3. Discussion
 Too much heat and light is not
good for us. People who are
exposed to too much heat and
light may suffer from the different
skin ailments.
 Being aware of the bad effects of
heat and light of the sun could
enable us to come up with the
ways to protect ourselves from the
dangers they may pose to our
health.
 The umbrella, hat, sunblock lotion
and sunglasses are things we can
use to protect us from the
excessive heat of the sun.
 To protect ourselves from the light
and heat of the sun, we can do
simple things such as:
We should avoid playing
under the sun when it is
high noon.
Let us not look directly to
the sun.
Apply sunblock lotion when
we go swimming.
So that if your mother or your father
advise you to bring your umbrella during sunny day,
what will you going to do?
Okay! Very Good.
